Editorial review from Citysearch 2/2/2014

You can come here with a group or individually. They have individual dhabi stations as well. The meat is good quality and they have different flavor broth. Check in with four square and get a free drink. Try their fried chicken wing appetizer also. more

Best Shabu Shabu in Monterey Park 5/7/2010

This place just re-opened on the May 5th under new management and the customer service has improved SO MUCH. Before, it was slow and it would take a while to even get something simple like a refill on a glass of water or your check. The new people have taken care of this problem though and the food is still great as usual and you can count on getting an affordable and tasty shabu meal for around under 15 bucks. The place is casual and relaxed, I can't see any downsides as of now but if I had to name one, it gets busy during lunch so take-out of an appetizer item of theirs might be a better choice at that time. I'm so happy this place is back in business!! :) Pros: Great food and service Cons: None- but if any very busy at lunch more

Slow service 4/22/2007

The few times that I've been here, I've noticed how slow the service can be. The staff can often forget about your requests...even when it comes to getting your check! The food isn't remarkable as it is just a bowl of boiling water where you dump the food in to cook. The prices are a little high for what you get. Not a bad place however, to just kick back in after work with some friends and have a beer with your dinner. Actually, make that 2 or 3 beers as you'll be waiting a while before your check arrives. Pros: Parking, healthy Cons: Service more

Good food, decent portions, cust srv not too great 2/15/2007

The food is good, the portions are reasonable. The sauces are great, not too dull in flavor. the service is not that great, they take a long time to bring you your drinks or appetizers. When the owner is there there seems to be a different attitude from the environment. usually very busy, so no prompt seating unless your going in the midafternoon. better food than a lot of other shabu shabu places in the l.a. area. i still go for the food, not the service, so you have to weigh what youre there for. Pros: Great sauces. Reasonable portions Cons: Poor Customer Service more

Not great as before, Bad Service, Overpriced! 8/26/2006

I noticed they might have changed ownership since I first visited years ago. Last time I went the place was empty in the late afternoon, yet the service was still poor, we finished our food then the appetizer arrives, I guess the waitress was too busy reading newspaper sitting next to us. \r \r Another time, we already finished our vegetable plate already and then come the drinks and meat plate, they also took away our condiments before we are done eating. That time wasn't even busy!\r \r This place been a famous Shabu Shabu place for long time in the area, but not anymore and I see they've lost lots of business. more

New and Improved 12/25/2005

I have been going to this restaurant for years, in the past one year their service was really bad, but the food was one of the best in LA area, lately I have noticed their serivce has improved 1000%, I guess they realized people have been complaining about the serivce, now the only complaint I have is, long wait in weekends. Pros: best Shabu, best Beef, healthy Cons: long wait wkend more

Shambu Shambu 11/8/2005

Basically for $15 + tax, you can get a plate of veggies and meat to cook yourself. I don't know why people are so hyped about the sacue, it's just sauce. Anyone who has been to shabu shabu knows that the service and waitresses are terrible. It's practically insulting. And the meat is getting thinner and thinner every time I go. I've been going for a while because there's no other local shabu shabu, but the meat is less than paper thin now. The last two times I went, the meat was impossibly thin -- it would fall apart when I tried to pick it up. What a sham. Pros: Healthly Cons: Expensive, Super thin meat, No service more

Not Impressive... 7/14/2005

Overall, I was extremely disappointed by this place. The meat had a bizarre texture, and the sauces were bland. Service was non-existent, and very abrupt. There are MUCH better places in Little Tokyo and/or the Sawtelle area over on the Westside. more

The worst possible place to eat on earth 7/4/2005

I went there a couple days ago and there was a sign for a lunch special. I came in with my friend to try it out... well nothing can hurt you when it's on lunch special WRONG! They don't have lunch special anymore, we were seated right away and before we could order anything, they already brought everything to our table. Well, I guessed, it wouldn't hurt to try. WRONG AGAIN! The sauce was too thick and tasteless, the sour soy was so sour. For the price that we paid for the food is not worth it. There are much better places than this. The service was super slow, cos they were understaffed. It took them 20 whole minutes to get another serving of rice, and another 20 minutes to fill in our drinks. Worst, they used bottled soda to for the customer, I would never ever go there again. Pros: None, None, None Cons: High Price, Super Bad Service, Low Food Quality more

The service is horrible. 6/9/2005

Very bad service. The attitude of the waitress is really bad. There isn't enough employees to take care of customers. You have to flag service when you need something and it takes twice as long if your waiting for the bill. The food is simple health and good but if there is another resturant like it I would recommend it. Pros: healthy food, tasty sauses Cons: not enough employees, bad customer service more

great stuff! 8/11/2004

T.T. Shabu offers not only great food but great service as well! Because they provide such a family atmosphere and comfortable environment, I can enjoy dining with my friends and family. I highly recommend going there for great food at a low cost. Pros: great service, inexpensive, comfortable more

Very tasty 1/21/2003

The food here is so good and soo filling. The meat is always fresh and the sesame sauce is great. Try it once and you'll be hooked. Pros: Cook your own food more

Best Shabu in LA!!! 5/21/2002

This is the best Shabu Shabu I have ever eaten at. The staff is friendly and they are not cheap on refilling the sauces. The prices are great for the large of amount of food you get and the meat and vegetables are fresh as well. Pros: sesame sauce, chicken wings, ice coffee more
